It’s a turn-key, right-hand bolt-action package built for whitetails, hogs, and big game where .400 Legend shines.
Straight-Wall Power – Chambered in 400 Legend
The Patriot 28213 is chambered in .400 Legend, a modern straight-wall cartridge designed to deliver strong downrange penetration, accuracy, and very manageable recoil—perfect for states that require straight-wall cartridges for rifle hunting.
Key advantages of 400 Legend:
Excellent terminal performance on deer, hogs, and similar game at typical hunting distances.
Reduced recoil compared to many traditional big-game calibers, making it easier to shoot accurately and comfortably.
Specifically optimized for straight-wall states, giving hunters a compliant cartridge without sacrificing performance.
If you hunt in the Midwest, Great Lakes region, or any area with straight-wall rifle restrictions, this Patriot in 400 Legend is built with your seasons in mind.
20" Matte Blued Fluted, Threaded Barrel – Compact, Accurate & Suppressor-Ready
This Mossberg Patriot features a 20" fluted, threaded barrel, giving you a compact, quick-handling rifle that still delivers excellent velocity and accuracy:
Barrel length: 20" – easy to maneuver in blinds, stands, and thick timber.
Profile: Fluted to reduce weight, aid cooling, and add a premium look.
Finish: Matte blued for a low-glare, classic appearance that resists the elements.
Threaded muzzle: 11/16x24 thread pattern for adding a muzzle brake, suppressor, or other muzzle device where legal.
Twist rate: 1:16" to stabilize common 400 Legend bullet weights.
Free-floated, recessed-crown design for consistent barrel harmonics and tight group potential.
This barrel setup makes the 28213 just as at home in the deer woods as it is on the range while giving you the flexibility to run modern muzzle devices.
Matte Blued Stainless Steel Receiver – Drilled, Tapped & Ready
The rifle uses a matte blued stainless steel receiver, combining corrosion resistance with a traditional look:
Material: Stainless receiver for added toughness and weather resistance.
Finish: Matte blued to match the barrel and maintain a subdued profile in the field.
Drilled & tapped from the factory, with scope bases/rings in place to support the included scope.
Inside, you get standard Patriot action features:
Spiral-fluted bolt for smooth cycling and reduced friction.
Knurled bolt handle for positive grip with or without gloves.
LBA (Lightning Bolt Action) user-adjustable trigger for a crisp, clean break that can be tuned to your preference.
The result is a smooth-running action that inspires confidence when a buck steps out or the shot opportunity is tight.
Classic Walnut Stock – Traditional Looks, Modern Ergonomics
What sets this model apart is its walnut fixed wood stock—a nod to classic hunting rifles with modern ergonomics built in:
Classic walnut with checkering for a timeless, elegant look and secure grip.
Fixed, straight-comb profile that aligns naturally with the included scope for quick target acquisition.
Integrated sling swivel studs for easy sling attachment on long hikes or climbs into the stand.
Designed to be durable yet visually impressive, ideal for hunters who appreciate both function and form.
If you love the warmth and feel of real wood instead of synthetic, this Patriot variant gives you exactly that without sacrificing ruggedness.
Factory-Mounted 3–9x40mm Duplex Scope – Hunt-Ready Out of the Box
The Mossberg Patriot 28213 ships as a scoped combo, including a 3–9x40mm scope with a Duplex reticle, already mounted and bore-sighted from the factory.
3–9x magnification is ideal for everything from close-in woods shots to longer field edges.
40mm objective lens gathers ample light for dawn/dusk hunting conditions.
Duplex crosshair is simple, uncluttered, and fast to center on game.
This turn-key package saves you time and money—just fine-tune your zero at the range and you’re ready for opening day.
4+1 Capacity, Detachable Box Magazine & Right-Hand Bolt
Like other Patriot models, the 28213 is built for straightforward operation in the field:
Capacity: 4+1 rounds (4-round detachable box magazine plus one in the chamber).
Magazine: Drop-box style mag for quick unloading and easy reloads at the truck or camp.
Action: Right-hand bolt action with a smooth 90° lift.
Safety: Two-position thumb safety for intuitive operation while maintaining a firing grip.
Overall length is about 40.75", and unloaded weight is roughly 6.8 lbs, giving you a rifle that carries easily but still settles nicely on target.
Perfect for Whitetail, Hogs & Straight-Wall States
With its .400 Legend chambering, compact threaded barrel, and walnut/optic combo, this Patriot is tailor-made for:
Whitetail deer in woods, cutovers, and fields—especially in straight-wall only states.
Hog hunting, where a maneuverable, quick-handling bolt gun with solid stopping power is a major asset.
General big-game use where moderate ranges and brushy cover are common.
The blend of mild recoil, reliable bolt-action design, and ready-to-go scope makes it an excellent choice for newer hunters, seasoned woodsmen, and anyone who wants a no-nonsense, classy hunting rifle.
